Coming into the year, DeMarco had 7 carrer 100 yard games for the Cowboys. This season, he has 9, giving him 16 career 100 games.

That ties Calvin Hill for 3rd place all time in Cowboys history.

1. Emmitt - 76
2. TD - 43
3. Murray, Hill - 16

4. Perkins - 10
5. Walker - 9

The NFL’s leading rusher spent his lunch hours with seven of his teammates serving an early Thanksgiving Day meal at the Salvation Army Carr P. Collins Social Service Center on Monday.
On Tuesday, DeMarco Murray will be back at work, preparing to carry the 7-3 Cowboys to a playoff berth.
“I am ready to go,’ Murray said. “Whatever they ask me to do it, I am going to do it times 10. It’s going to be an exciting next couple of weeks.”
Between, Nov. 23 and Dec. 28, Dallas will play four road games in northern cities as it aims to make the postseason for the first time since 2009.
“In this part of the year, it’s cold,” he said. “So I think the running game is going to be a little bit more of a factor for us.”

I'm excited! Traveling hasn't been a problem to this point, and their game translates well to the conditions they'll likely face. In two weeks time we'll have a better understanding of how good this team can be.

One point that has been brought up by some is that while the Cowboys running game is good, it does have one problem fumbling. Ball security gets worse in cold weather because the ball gets harder and slicker usually. So the one worry with our running game is can Murray and Randle hold onto the ball in the games in NY, Philly, Chicago, and DC.

I disagree. Given the high rate of carries, I don't see Murray's fumbling as a big deal, particularly as he has pretty much corrected that the past few weeks. I mean, he had NO FUMBLES yesterday!
